GOOD ADVICE.
Copyright, 1888, by Oliver Ditson & Co.
Shall I then love him, or shall I leave him,
Who has my heart's great happiness made?
Ceasing to love him, shall I then bate him?
Ceasing to love him, shall I then hate him?
Counsel me well, oh, do not dissuade.
Wild is he truly, hasty in manner,
But my devotion to him I have paid;
Wild is he truly, hasty in manner,
Wild is he truly, hasty in manner;
Counsel me well, oh, do not dissuade.
Let me be cautious, my fate not sadden,
Better at once in the grave be laid;
May I then ever listen to wisdom?
May I then ever listen to wisdom?
Counsel me well, oh, do not dissuade.
